I have a 98 dodge stratus. Its been running really well as of late, but last week, the wheel started putting up resistance when I try to turn. Its only when I'm pulling into or out of parking spots, or try to turn with my foot on the break...I just got my oil changed a little while ago and they said all my fluids were good...is this going to be pricey to fix?

Check power steering Genius
Problem working the steering wheel in my car when i want to turn!!?
Sounds as if you are having one of two problems. First check the belt. If the problem is at low RPMs it could be slipping. Or you could have a rack and pinion that is going bad on you.
sounds like the steering pump is low or the belt is slipping. those places will tell you anything. some of those places don,t know a power steering from a radio.

What provokes a clicking sound inside the steering wheel?
I own a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee and everything works fine but there is this little sound that its heard when I turn the steering wheel lets say to change to another lane or to make a turn. The sound is similar to the sound that goes on when you use the directional and goes off when you are done making the turn, the sound that happens when the directional go back to its original place. The cv joints are perfect, and no other sound its heard when the steering wheel makes that sound. Any idea what could be? I guess is something inside the steering wheel.
What provokes a clicking sound inside the steering wheel?
It is probably inside the steering column. There are plastic and nylon pieces that can wear out and break.

its normal..probably just a pieced of plastic sticking out and hitting something...nothing to really worry about

I'm experiencing very loud vibrating/rumbling noises on my Renault Laguna when driving and steering what is it
It is a well used car (200k miles). The problem does not appear to be one with the engine. There is a loud rumbling noise that is occuring which seems to change in volume when the steering wheel is moved. The noise is pretty bad and sounds as if you are driving over rumble strips. I have checked the power steering liquid and that is full and I am quite worried about driving it. I would just like some advice as to what the problem could be. Any help would be much appreciated.
many thanks.

I think you have a blown, or shifted belt in the tire. If you have steel belted, it is difinite. If you have nylon, rayon bias belted, the defect in the tire is in the side wall. If the rumble was in the swaying of the tire, then it would be on the bottom, and that condition, is called tracking. Do ypou feel any irregular feeling in the steering wheel, ex. right to left movement, then the problem is in the front wheels. If you feel a troubbing, in the seat of the car, then your bad tire is in the rear tires. replace as necessary.

It sounds to me like a wheel bearing. I believe they are double row angular bearings, and one race can fail. This is often dure to the seal failing and letting water in.
The change in noise when cornering points to a bearing, as this will change the thrust load.
It might not be obvious from spinning the wheel, or rocking the wheel, as on of the races could be okay.
many thanks.

Steering wheel controls?
I am thinking of changing the stereo in my citroen xzara 1998, as it has just the standard cassete player at the moment, but my hubby tells me that the steering wheel controls wont work any more is this right? I want to put a cd player in and i have done this in several cars so i have basic knoledge but i have never had steering wheel controls before, any ideas?
Steering wheel controls?
if you have a good make stereo you can buy an iso plug from halfords that has a remote lead in it that would work your steering controls ask them for the right one it is a couple of quid more than the standard iso plug but no more than 20 quid i would advise taking in the stereo with you to check it is compatible with the controls or price a new one whilst you are in there
Steering wheel controls?
Depends on if the new stereo has inputs for the steering wheel controls or not. Probably hard to match if at all possible.
you can get new steering wheel controls aswell.
Unless it is a Factory stereo, the built in controls will not work anymore. You might check junkyards and see if there is a vehicle of the same year/make/model as yours that you could get a CD player from. Or consider a multipack CD changer that mounts remotely.
Aftermarket stereos don't have the remote control/steering wheel controlsbuilt into them. Even if they did, the wiring would be a nightmare.
It will have to be the same make of Stereo that is currently in the car
yes you can do this-its called a steering wheel control interface-its avalible from pacific accessory corporation-this wires in to your original steering controls and it has a remote eye you can mount it to face your new cd/or tape player-its very hard to program though there instructions arent very good but it does work-its about $60-hope this helps ya out
****also-you do have to buy an aftermarket radio that comes with a remote or this wont work
UR HUBBY IS RITE
if you get a decent stereo you should be able to get an adapter for steering wheel controls, but be prepared for the cost as i had to pay just short of 拢80 for an alpine oneemail parameter

After market steering wheel (1984 C10 p/u)?
I am planning on buying a after market steering wheel for an 1984 Chevy C10 p/u. And I'm wondering if the horn will be compatible with the new steering wheel. I've been browsing the web and mostly all steering wheels I've seen are for off road use only, they have no horns. Does anyone have any suggestion on a compatible steering wheel that has a horn. I'm only changing it because I hate the huge factory steering wheel. Thanks a bunch.
After market steering wheel (1984 C10 p/u)?
Most of the aftermarket wheels from like Grant, and Billet Specialties have working horn buttons
You'll need to buy the wheel you like then the chevy Installation Kit for the wheel.
Here's you about 400 steering wheels that will work

I have a grant classic 3 spoke on my 1988 camaro, and I had the same steering wheel on my 1973 c/10, and we have a grant Formula GT wheel on a '87 suburban... All have working horns

Steering wheel wobble when braking?
Changed my front disks and pads to new ones. now when I brake at 50mph+ the steering wheel wobbles/vibrates. What should I check for?
Steering wheel wobble when braking?
Our car did that two separate times. Once it was the tie-rods, which cost a couple of hundred bucks to repair. The other time it was the sway bar, which cost less than a hundred, but was an important repair because the broken ends were scraping the gas tank and could have caused a major bad explosion sort of thing.
Steering wheel wobble when braking?
Your car is out of line
thats not good
check for uneven wear on the new pads and also it could be a loose lugnut. your brake caliper might be loose on the rotor or somwthing else on the braking system
mine did the exact same thing, they told me it could be the roters need to be turned or that the brakes might need fixing all together. either way i know if you leave it you'll need a new set of brakes.
Well first of whoever did the work take it back to them. They should fix this for you for no charge. If not then you could get the police involved. But if you did it yourself just verify that you didn't handle the disks and pats too much or damaged them by any chance. The pads might not fit and someone just say they were close enough and threw them on. Maybe over a couple days they will wear down some and it will go away completely. Its really hard to tell without looking at it. It could be a bunch of things. Take it back to the garage where you had it fixed. They are liable.
your front rotors need to be replaced or resurfaced.
Take the car back to who ever replaced the breaks and tell them what is happening , Maybe they will put it up on the rack and could spot the problem , Remember they only did the breaks and did not look for anything else , Could be shocks ,Tie roads ends ect. good luck
